"Finley Hart is sent to her grandparents' house for the summer, but her anxiety and overwhelmingly sad days continue until she escapes into her writings which soon turn mysteriously real and she realizes she must save this magical world in order to save herself"-- Provided by publisher.
Things Finley Hart doesn't want to talk about: Her parents, who are having problems. (But they pretend like they're not.) Being sent to her grandparents' house for the summer. Never having met said grandparents. Her blue days - when life feels overwhelming, and it's hard to keep her head up. (This happens a lot.) Finley's only retreat is the Everwood: a forest kingdom that exists in the pages of her notebook. Until she discovers the endless forest behind her grandparents' house and realizes the Everwood is real - and it's in trouble. With the help of her cousins, Finley sets out on a mission to save it. But as the mysteries pile up, and Finley's reality and fantasy start to collide, she realizes that if she wants to save the Everwood, she'll first have to save herself. -- from back cover.
